Smart Infrastructure

Practical insights from 14 re:build sessions on implementing smart infrastructure in regenerative villages.

Definition

Smart infrastructure represents a new category of technology that works with our biological nature as social beings, rather than against it. These systems harmonize our basic biology with our bio-social core needs and emerging technologies.

Key Principles

  • So it's about how do we actually harmonize our basic biology with the bio-social core needs that humans have and with the emerging technology that's coming out
  • And really fundamentally, the most low-embodied energy high strength healthy, especially biothermic materials, materials that you can use, the geometry of the geodemic, like, really optimize the amount of materials that are required to, uh, include space, and there's no cross-beams, and it's like, you know, with three-deprinting, different things, it's really a wall building technology

Methods and Approaches

And I think that the smart aspect of it is also something that's the I think is the best way to do that

It's a great way to improve the is, it's a smart neighborhood in Europe, I like, I But I'm one of the things that I've been working on last winter

This is a, you know, full structure building technology, you're not actually, youic domes that are molded, precast, in factories, highly automated kind of injection molding processes can just be the most affordable and sustainable homes on earth

Benefits

  • And so we're really thinking a lot about how technology can help with that
  • Revealager about myself about what we're really, the problem we're really focused on, and how we're using technology to try to help solve some of the, some of the ways in which it's going to interact with villages
  • But ultimately, I think this technology puts us on a trajectory of just radical affordability as well as all these health and ecological benefits
  • And particularly in terms of the integration of technology to the e- which is the basis, and understanding the benefits of leveraging the type of things

Key Insights

Abundant solutions: Smart infrastructure offers abundant solutions across energy technology and many other domains.

Energy manipulation: Some technologies use spiraling materials and specific geometries to move energy in intentional ways, creating functional spaces.

Scalable models: Different forms of regenerative agriculture and energy technology complement community models, can be explored within communities, and can be scaled in various forms throughout the world.

Bridge to better world: Technology can serve as a bridge to a happier, more sustainable world when designed with regenerative principles.

Resistance to technology: In regenerative work, scientists, agriculturalists, and restoration specialists are often resistant to technology, sometimes because large markets focus on measuring components that don't affect the majority of the world.

Expert collaboration: There are experts who can provide the foundational knowledge needed for smart infrastructure development.

Smart systems integration: Smart infrastructure integrates multiple systems intelligently, creating beautiful and functional solutions.

Examples and Case Studies

So the protection is a new technology to raise innovative ideas, visionaries, sustainable projects, and also new traditions

But in short order provides tools for communities, projects, organizations to build the new type of technology

There's so much exciting technology in terms of organic bio-dynamic farming interventions that are robotic and robotic assisted, just by one way of example, or geoship, for instance, in terms of the built environment in terms of cladding or in terms of design thinking, lots of different opportunities to model

Best Practices

  • So people in the third one are smart, like, really embracing technology
  • And I think that the smart aspect of it is also something that's the I think is the best way to do that
  • It's a great way to improve the is, it's a smart neighborhood in Europe, I like, I But I'm one of the things that I've been working on last winter
  • Yeah, and then the goal is to do it right at what I call the smart
